Chapter 158: Mutual Schemes 2
While the eldest princess was taking action, the second princess also went to see her father, then relayed Ripple’s words, poured herself a cup of tea, and then said unwillingly:< br>
"The Queen Mother reminded me this time because she was obviously dissatisfied with the Zhao family's military power, and this time there was also the matter of the third sister mixed in. I am really unlucky."
Zhao After hearing this, he also had an angry look on his face, and said in a faint voice:
"I asked why I haven't seen Xian Shijun during this period. It turns out that he has already gone to the third emperor's side, and he can't stand up to the stage. He is just a servant, but he has surpassed me now, just because he is an old man in the former residence and has a daughter by his side."
"Father, please don't get so angry. You are the emperor's husband, and you will be the only one who can be buried with the mother in a hundred years. They can only watch."
The second princess comforted her, and then she said with hatred. Said:
“The third sister is really in the wrong place. If something happens to her, the Queen Mother will definitely be angry with me.”
“This is not an opportunity to pull the eldest princess. Come down."
Ms. Zhao rubbed the cup in her hand and said softly.
"What my father means is"
"If something happens to the third princess, you can pin the matter on the eldest princess."
"Will the mother believe it?"
"You two are competitors now. Something happened to the Third Princess. She is the biggest beneficiary, and you are the biggest victim. What do you think others will think when the time comes."
"They will I feel that in order to eliminate me, the eldest princess tried every means to make the third sister have an accident while I was in charge of the country. This would not only prove my incompetence, but also make the mother queen angry with me.
Unless I am stupid, I will never do such a self-digging thing, and the object of their suspicion will naturally be the eldest princess! What a wonderful move! "
The second princess suddenly had an idea. She said a few words to her father and left in a hurry.
After thinking about it, the emperor took care of himself. After that, he went to see the Queen.
Since moving to Zhuoxiu Garden, the Queen has not stayed overnight at any of them for a long time, citing the excuse of recuperation. Quite a bit.
Lianyi was not surprised at all that the imperial husband would come to see her. She just asked Zhao to play a game of chess with her. He expressed his loyalty both inside and outside his words. She did not comment, but just reminded him not to. Interfering too much with the second princess's decision made Zhao feel unhappy
The third princess of Fengqi Kingdom didn't know yet that her eldest sister and second sister were concerned about her life at the same time. She was still drinking the bitter concoction and occasionally acting coquettishly to the virtuous servant. I don't know that the threat of death is getting closer and closer.
Half a month later, the used items collected by the eldest princess were transported to the disaster-stricken city. Fengxuan City also received ten carts of supplies. After the items were delivered, the person who transported the goods did not leave immediately; Help distribute the items, because they are the ones who transported the items and they know exactly what is in the car.
Because of their participation, the work efficiency is very high, and everything is allocated in one day.
After moving around a few times, the marked clothes arrived at the place where the Third Princess and the others were. However, the items were not delivered to the Third Princess, but were stopped by Xian Shijun.
“I don’t know if these old clothes have been washed or not. It’s better not to let the Third Princess wear them. She has not recovered from a serious illness and cannot have any evil mistakes. I brought her a few old clothes, which are enough for a change. These are all Send it to other soldiers.”
"Yes."
The female guard also felt that the delicate and elegant third princess would not wear such old clothes, so she casually gave the clothes to the two recruits from poor families in the tent next door. They didn't have that much. Being particular about it, I naturally accepted it happily.
There are also levels in the barracks. It is their turn after the veterans have picked them. What good things can be obtained from the rest, but the ones given to the three princesses are definitely better than theirs. They only know the female soldiers next door. She has a distinguished status and does not know that the other party is a princess, so there is no burden to put things away. But five days later, all five recruits in the tent next door were infected with the plague. These five people were immediately taken away, and then medical officers began to fumigate the tent where they lived, and their belongings were also gathered together. Carry out incineration.
“It’s really strange, why is it that only the people in their tent have an accident, while the people in the surrounding tents are fine, and this is the tent inside, how did they get infected?”
Heavily armed doctors are searching for the source of the infection, fearing that the plague will spread among the soldiers and something big will happen.
The speaker has no intention of listening, but the cold-faced guard's eyes flashed, and he turned around and went to the tent of the third princess, and asked if any of them had come into contact with the tent next door. Sure enough, two people came forward and said that they had sent used clothes.
"Leave the Third Princess's tent immediately."
The guard ordered directly.
The two were stunned, but they still followed the order and left the tent immediately. Xian Shijun also noticed something was wrong and asked directly:
"But what's the problem?"
"My subordinates suspect that someone is targeting the Third Princess, but there is no evidence, and the time when the people in the next tent contracted the plague is too coincidental. I don't dare to bet on this, so let this person The two people who came into contact with foreign objects left temporarily."
"Do you suspect that they deliberately spread the plague through the things they distributed?"
Xian Shijun frowned and recalled his recent contact. people and things.
"Yes, the body of the Third Princess is recovering. We have not been infected by the plague because of the good protection. If we all fall, who will protect the Third Princess? Just in case, we can only send the Three Princesses to the hospital. The princess is sent out of Fengxuan City, which is definitely not the best outcome.”
The cold-faced Konoe said in a deep voice.
Xian Shijun nodded and admitted that this was the worst outcome.
"In this case, we must be more careful. Before coming, the Queen asked Meiyuan to prepare the medicine pack. Remember to boil the preventive medicine soup and drink it every day.
Please pay attention to the woman next door. In the case of the soldiers, it would be best to find out how they were infected with the plague."
"Yes."
After the guards left the tent, they gathered people together, arranged their shifts, and then took turns guarding outside the third princess's tent, checking the things at the entrance more carefully.
In the evening, Konoe met Mr. Xian Shijun alone with a serious face and informed him of the investigation results:
"The five people were infected because of the clothes they wore. It seems that They were worn by people infected with the plague. I went to look at them and found that the clothes were all old clothes distributed this time. We didn’t keep any of them, so we escaped.”
Xian Shi. After hearing this, Jun's eyes sharpened. This was obviously aimed at the Third Princess, he was very sure.
"I will send a message to the Queen right now, asking you to strengthen the protection of the three princesses."
"Yes!"
On the other side, the confidants of the second princess were in low-key contact with people sent by Panlong Kingdom.
The second princess discussed with her people and felt that even if she wanted to frame the third princess, her people could not do it themselves. Once she was found out, she would be in a place of eternal destruction. At this time, Panlong Kingdom happened to be Someone showed up, and she thought it was a good time to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
